How are you? Hope you’re staying safe at home…

We are a month into shelter at home from the pandemic caused by Covid-19. So many of those that just got engaged during the holidays should have been taking their spring engagement photoshoots now! We have the occasional windy and gloomy days here and there but things have been clearing up. The clouds seem bluer these days and the sun is out to play. What perfect weather to shoot outside.

However, harsh reality is that we shouldn’t be outside let alone come into contact with anyone outside our household. So what now?

Have you thought about taking engagement photos in your own home? How about capturing the real you with your loved one in real life settings. Photos by the beach or hillside next to blooms are certainly beautiful but so is the moment when the two of you are just being yourselves in your own bed.

I had the luxury of having a friend capture our home engagement photos when my husband and I got married a few years ago. However, I feel we are all tech savvy enough to take a few shots with our phones if we don’t have the 3rd person to aim and shoot for us.

Maybe just give it a try as your pre-engagement shoot. Could be something fun to do while we’re staying home…
